 What Are the Major Drivers Influencing the Electronic Waste Market?
 The increasing consumption of electronic products is expected to propel the growth of the electronic waste market going forward. Electronic products refer to devices or equipment that operate using electrical power, including computers, smartphones, TVs, appliances, and other gadgets. The growing consumption of electronic products is due to increasing urbanization and rising disposable incomes, which enable more people to afford and use a variety of electronic devices. The increasing consumption of electronic products leads to increased electronic waste with advancing technology and frequent product upgrades, leading to shorter device lifespans. They increase disposal rates and contribute to growing e-waste volumes, highlighting the need for effective recycling and waste management solutions. For instance, in October 2023, according to the GSM Association, a UK-based non-profit organization, approximately 80% of mobile internet users are now using 4G or 5G smartphones, reflecting an increase of 330 million people from 2022 to 2023. Therefore, the increasing consumption of electronic products is driving the growth of the electronic waste market.
